Handmade High Waist Ruffled Pantaloon Pants- Rare 1960s French Moiré Silk
These pants are made from a vintage French Moiré Silk Fabric. I know this type of fabric was poplar in the Victorian era, but I did get this from the estate of a local artist who imported fabric in the 1960s-1980s, so I would say its from around then. I would say this is a very light weight fabric. This pant is made from a vintage palazzo pant pattern and features a wide leg, full ruffle trim, high waist, and elastic waist band to fit a variety of sizes. It also has inseam pockets for maximum comfort and utility :)
